Why the Archbishop of Canterbury needs to think again on Israel and the International Court of Justice
(Photo: Getty/iStock) In a recent statement issued by Lambeth Palace, the Archbishop of Canterbury has given his unequivocal support to the Advisory Opinion issued by the International Court of Justice (ICJ) calling for Israel’s immediate and unconditional withdrawal from the ‘occupied Palestinian territories’ and reparation to be paid to the Palestinians for damage caused by the…

How Lonely Planet Founders Tony and Maureen Wheeler Revolutionized the Way We Travel ‹ Literary Hub
On July 4, 1972, a pair of young newlyweds named Tony and Maureen backed out of the driveway of a family home in the south of England. They were driving a used blue minivan that they had bought for the princely sum of £65, and their goal was to get to India. Or somewhere. They had a trunk full of food, cooking equipment, some spare parts for the car, a stack of traveler’s checks, some sleeping…

Behind the Scenes on the Set of My Lady Jane ‹ Literary Hub
“Right between the tits, every time!” If this doesn’t sound like the chatter you’d expect from the soundstage of a lavishly appointed Tudor-set period piece, you don’t know My Lady Jane. Adapted by showrunner Gemma Burgess from a saucy YA fantasy of the same name, the Prime Video live-action series—its inaugural season streaming in its entirety as of June 27—is, by design, not your proverbial…

Indexing the Life of Sylvia Plath ‹ Literary Hub
Indexing is a quantitative enterprise—at least the way I do it. I don’t use an index program, just a search box, to find mentions of key words and phrases. In the index for volume one of Sylvia Plath Day by Day, I have over 100 entries on shopping—by herself, with her mother, with boyfriends, with a boyfriend’s mother, with girlfriends, with her grandparents, with the children she babysat.…

How Our Culture Continues to Blame the Victims of Male Violence ‹ Literary Hub
In a recent piece for Bookforum, the critic Moira Donegan called Christine Blasey Ford one of our culture’s “disposable heroes.” Heroic for going public about her alleged assault by Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh; disposable because we know what happened, in the end. During the now-famous hearings on Capitol Hill in the fall of 2018, Blasey Ford was nervous, but clear, “superlatively…

What Must a Christian Believe?
Imagine that you’re in London. The year is 1675; it’s been fewer than ten years since the Great Fire ravished the city. One Sunday afternoon, after lunch, you walk down Bishopsgate Street to discover a constant flow of people entering the great hall of the Crosby House. The large home’s owner is Sir John Langham, a Nonconformist who has left the Church of England. Continue reading What Must a…

How Japanese-American Scientist Eugenie Clark Spearheaded the Study of Sharks ‹ Literary Hub
The first shark we catch this morning in Terra Ceia Bay is a very angry, very pregnant bull shark. She whips her tail with amazing force, desperately trying to propel herself out of our grip. I cannot get hold of her tail, and we struggle to pull her into position along the side of the boat. She’s girthy—just from looking at her we can see she’s carrying pups. With one big, massive jerk, she…

Struggling to Make Your Sermons Evangelistic? You’re Not Alone.
As pastors, we acknowledge the importance of evangelism in the Christian life. Sharing the good news was one of the last directives that our Lord gave His disciples (Matt. 18:18–20), and the early church’s rapid growth largely was due to the believers’ obedience to this command. Given its central role in the New Testament, evangelism should be a key feature in our lives—including in our…

On Reading—and Rereading—James Baldwin’s “Sonny’s Blues” ‹ Literary Hub
I can’t recall with certainty when I first read James Baldwin’s “Sonny’s Blues,” but I had it well in mind in 1984 when Raymond Carver and I were selecting stories for our American Short Story Masterpieces. When Ray and I worked on our selections, we would meet in Manhattan, where I lived, or in Syracuse, New York, where he lived. Whichever of us had traveled brought a suitcase full of books, and…

The Goals, Tasks, and Practicalities of Pastoring God’s People
Pastoral ministry is, in many minds, synonymous with pulpit ministry. Yet pastors, as their name suggests, are not only preachers but shepherds. They are “those who will have to give an account” (Heb. 13:17), working as under-shepherds to the Chief Shepherd (1 Peter 5:2, 4), the one to whom the sheep belong. They have been charged with caring for the flock. Continue reading The Goals, Tasks, and…

A Century of James Baldwin ‹ Literary Hub
100 years ago, on August 2, 1924 James Baldwin, né James Arthur Jones, was born in New York City. Needless to say, he would grow to become one of America’s most important and beloved writers, thinkers, and social critics; his novels, essays, plays, poems, and criticism are essential reading for anyone who wants to understand this country—or the human condition. Article continues after…

What Are the Marks of a Good Pastor?
Most pastors would say that they aspire to be good pastors—that is, good at the task to which they’ve been set, not merely average (much less rotten!). Thankfully, the Scriptures don’t leave us without guidance as to what being a “good pastor” means. When Paul wrote his first letter to Timothy, he told him, “If you put these things before the brothers, you will be a good servant of Christ Jesus”…

On the Life and Legacy of a 15th-Century Italian Poet ‹ Literary Hub
I first became infatuated with Luigi da Porto, a warrior-poet from 15th century Italy in 2001, when I went to live in Verona. I’d just completed my Creative Writing masters at UEA, and, young and low on life-experience, was on the hunt for a story. It was not the most thought-through plan. I ended up working as a receptionist in an internet café during the day, and in the evenings, I’d skulk the…

Jesus Does Not Change—and That’s Good News
“Changes,” a popular ’70s-era song, captures well the feeling many of us have toward the notion of change: Everyone is going through changes;No one knows what’s going on;And everybody changes places,But the world still carries on. Love must always change to sorrow,And everyone must play the game;It’s here today and gone tomorrow,But the world goes on the same. Continue reading Jesus Does Not…
